It's Mardi Gras Time!

Around here, that's just another excuse for a big party. You wouldn't catch us anywhere close to New Orleans right now! Sweet, innocent Lily and Rita are in New Orleans now with some friends. Lordy, I am sure they are seeing things that will blow their minds! I gave them strict instructions that their shirts were to stay down at all times! Their eyes got so big when I said it and they just giggled...just wait! I told them to send me pics and to make it back alive :) I gave them their first tiny glimpse of a Mardi Gras parade last weekend at our local parade. Bryce's band was marching so the girls and I brought Lily and Rita. They were so cute and loved catching the beads.

The kids are out of school this week, so Friday was the pre-school parade. Oh my was it cute!! I remember doing this with the boys. They all love it!
All dressed up for the parade.

Bryce and Cade only had a half day of school, so I let them skip and come with us.
I'll bet he was the only high school boy wearing a feather boa!! (well, I hope he was!! )

In my quest to become more like Jennifer everyday :) I looked to see if our university has a hosting international type program thingy bobber but alas....notsomuch. Boo. Well, at least we will still have Sea Cadets. :)
